In 2016, municipal leaders and residents from across the state formed an independently funded, grassroots effort named Sustainable CT. The group created a “roadmap” which set forth the steps needed to promote a town’s eco-nomic well-being while, at the same time, respecting the natural environment. The Granby Conservation Commission’s goal is for Granby to become Bronze-certified.
